Hogs Breath Cafe - Napier, New Zealand Reviews

Waiter was very friendly when we entered.
The cocktail drinks we ordered weren't very nice.
We ordered the tower for 2 which was enormous ($74) which we couldn't finish but it wasn't amazing taste wise (steaks we ordered medium but came to us medium rare).
Half way through our meal a waitress started serving us with no explanation which wasn't a big issue but she clearly wasn't as friendly. We gave her a big tip despite that and she didn't seem like she cared.
You get huge meals for what you pay for but it's not somewhere I'd choose to go again

Haven't eaten here in awile and was looking forward to it. Not what it used to be. Meals were small and ok. Staff was nice tho.

We have been many times and enjoyed but wont go back again, waiter awesome hence the one star. $33 for a main you would expect a good sized meal, no not at all and it was only average in taste at a push. I did ask the desk person and she said the portion size's had been reduced because that"s what Aussie told them to do. Well that sucks, good bye to me and friends as regulars

The food looked like it was slopped on the plate, but it did taste good. The service was quick and friendly as well. If you're looking for a casual night out for dinner, this is a decent stop.

Medium rear steak came out grey and clearly microwaved, arrived before our drinks had even come out! Second time round steak cooked nicely but hadn't rested so blood stained chips and salad. Table was sticky and needed a good clean. We didn't want to rest our arms on table. Very disappointing and will never return.

Great service and lovely food. And they put me on cloud nine with dairy free dessert. Child found a great use for curly fries before eating

Good location. You can see the beach from this restaurant. Meal size is good & food quality is very average. Price is not cheap either.

Been going here for years. Undercooked steak once, wasn't charged and was fixed. Staff are always friendly and professional, even when busy.
I highly recommend giving Hogs Breath a go, you won't regret it.

Good food, fast service and very child friendly. Certainly more of a family restaurant than a romantic night out place. Everything pretty much comes with fried items too.

Stopped there for early lunch. The food was quite bad to begin with, to be honest. Also they charged me for it twice. First time when I used my card the transaction did not complete properly, so they had me do the payment again by signing a receipt. Turns out the first transaction was just delayed, and I was charged the same amount again later. And even though I left my phone number, they never called me back. Quite a shifty place that I'll definitely avoid next time.
